It’s when the felhunter’s attention is on you that they start consuming magic with the tentacles, but their low profile and their prominent skull makes it difficult to fight one facing you head on with magic. What we do see is that their skulls are actually immune to magic as spells ricochet off of them. Khadgar blew the side of one right open with an arcane blast when its attention was turned elsewhere. Though granted, the Paladin ritual does make the Paladin literally One with the Light soĪnd finally in The Last Guardian we see that felhunters aren’t inherently immune to magic – their ability to devour magic is an active ability they must channel, performed through their tentacles. 4/6 of the roster, so we can assume Light and Void as well - though strictly speaking, that’s conjecture until otherwise stated. So it’s confirmed to apply to at least Arcane magic, Life magic, Death magic, and Fel magic. This theory is confirmed to be correct when Arthas killed Kel’Thuzad and his cultists the first time. At the moment of your death, those eneriges are released, and the necromancer decomposes years in a matter of seconds. The motif of magic use saturating your life essence repeats in Rise of the Lich King where Jaina states that Kirin Tor had for years theorised this same concept applying to Necromancers where immersing yourself with necrotic energies slowly turned you undead overtime, and eventually you’d reach a point where the necrotic energies were the only thing holding your body together. He forced the felhunter to stay on while he began to devour the felhunter instead. We also see in the same novel that they can devour Fel from Demon Hunters (and therefore warlocks?) but the realisation of what energy the felhunter was dealing with made it fearful and try to pull its tentacles back with panic – but Illidan wouldn’t allow him. Worse, given enough energy to devour, the demonic hounds could multiply themselves several times over, creating an epidemic of evil.
To any spellcaster, felbeasts were an especially insidious foe, for they hunted those with the gift for magic and drank from them until nothing but husks remained. Malfurion screamed as the vampiric suckers literally tore the magic from his body much as the teeth would soon tear his flesh. One felhunter can quickly become an epidemic if it’s not stopped in time. When the felhunter has devoured enough magic, they multiply. seem convinced that yeah they actually could, thanks Dath’Remar for saving them. We also see in War of the Ancients that a felbeast makes an attempt to rush Tyrande and her priestesses (though it gets intercepted and killed by Dath’Remar) with its tentacles out so they at least tried to consume the Light, and Tyrande & Co. When you use a type of magic - any magic - enough, it intertwines with your very life essence and draining one drains the other. Given time to finish its unholy meal, the felbeast would leave only a dried husk. By draining it out of its victims, the felbeast also devoured their life force. It mattered not whether a spellcaster was a sorcerer, wizard, or druid, the magic that they used quickly became a part of them. Malfurion cried out as he felt it begin to drain him of his power.
They don’t simply consume mana, but magic as a whole. We see in War of the Ancients how fel hunters’ draining ability works precisely. The champions of Highmaul were withered lumps, their featureless bodies folded into the sand, a few strands of hair catching fire as the only evidence that they had ever lived.
#Fel magic icon skin#
It struck the ogres with the force of a hurricane, scalding off their skin in an awful instant. Baleful greenish-yellow flame, burning the very air it hung in, drawing scorched breaths from the lungs of everyone watching, whirled through the fighting pit. Mar’gok had never seen its like anywhere. He grinned as Ko’ragh busily smashed a club through one of the orcs’ throats-and stopped when the breaker’s skin flaked off of his body like leaves under boiling water. The imperator squinted, trying to read their magic as they called it down, but it was alien. The orcs twitched their fingers faster in recondite movements. It reminds me of its portrayal in Warlords of Draenor and its stories.
#Fel magic icon movie#
I would say Fel in the movie is very similar to the depiction we have been given in the other, World of Warcraft media: it is addictive, it requires life to consume in order to function at its peak, and the mere touch corrupts. Fel magic is one of those things that are very different in the movie universe, resembling more how Void is treated / acts in the canon lore.
